Fits my needs - Good battery life - so far

Verified Purchase:Yes
After trying out one of these units for a few weeks, I bought a second so I could have stereo. The sound is quite good for speakers this size but not for audiophiles. I use them to play music from my computer while I am working and, other than occasional issues with the Bluetooth connection, they do the job. The set up and configuration is easy and portability is a strong point.

Headset works, bluetooth controller, not so much

Verified Purchase:Yes
As the title says, the headset is adequate and does what headsets like these typically do (Your phone is what makes the difference) but the controller did not work and the included apps were not good. Given the sale price and the headset being useable, not worth the trouble of returning.

For Santana and Ron Isley fans
on February 25, 2018
Posted by: DicktheBruiser
from Gaithersburg MD
Verified Purchase:Yes
Not Carlos or Ron's best...but pretty good for Boomers and Santana completists. For a change, Santana is the 'newer' artist in this pairing. If you liked the Rod Stewart and Ron Isley version of "This Old Heart of Mine", as well as vintage Santana, you will likely enjoy this album....and I suspect that there might be a Santana - Rod Stewart album for next Christmas....depending on how the recent tour goes.

Does the job....

Verified Purchase:Yes
Not too much that one can say about a cable other than it does the job for which I bought it and that it was sold at a price I was willing to pay.

Very good but signal not strong

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this set of phones to help a senior relative with not-the-best hearing and the enhanced volume and clarity did the trick. There was an issue with signal loss, however, when the base station was not located in the middle of a regular-sized, one-level apartment.

Works fine...but charging cable could be longer

Posted by: DicktheBruiser

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this with a Sony Bluetooth speaker so my mother-in-law could hear her TV better. Works well...but keeping it attached to an outlet was a little difficult because of the short changing cord (including an AC-adapter would have been good)....although most people will likely be fine with using the run-recharge capability.

This Sony wireless speaker has Bluetooth connectivity with NFC One-touch, and it can also link to a second speaker for stereo sound.
 

When connected to play music, it will stop the music to load (loading circle by my wifi symbol, iPhone) and continue to stop and start music. I know it's not my wifi connection because when Bluetooth is off, my phone runs at normal speed. What is wrong?

I do not think that the speaker is the problem. As I understand things, the speaker does not load anything, it merely plays the input that it is receiving. Moreover, if you are seeing your WiFi icon loading....the speaker is using the Bluetooth signal only, not WiFi.

I hope that helps.
